There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. Server-assisted clients like blockchain.info rely on centralized servers to do their network verification for them. Although the server can't steal the client's bitcoins directly, it can easily execute double-spending-style attacks against the client.

How is it any better or worse than any other form of prejudice? Don't take the high road here, everyone has their cultural taboos. I didn't say anything about this part of this thread, because I know that I have my own. In this case, I agree with both sides to some degree. I have no problem with Bruce's lifestyle, provided that I'm not exposed to it. However, as Namigold has already pointed out, in his first interview Bruce kinda shared a bit too much. He was also somewhat led there as well.

Some sorts of hate are better than others because they are based on a more valid basis. I hate nazis, because Nazis will kill me if they get the chance (I am part Gypsy) I hate homophobes because they will cause trouble for friends of mine.

So yes, I would say some sorts of prejudice are better than others.

That only applied from your own frame of reference. Self-preservation is a logical basis for ranking prejudices, and such prejudices help keep us safe. But I don't hate nazi's for the same reasons. I am both part Native American and part European Jew, but you would have been hard pressed to tell by looking at me. Beyond your self-framed references, your personal taboos have no basis in a larger society.

"The powers of financial capitalism had another far-reaching aim, nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole. This system was to be controlled in a feudalist fashion by the central banks of the world acting in concert, by secret agreements arrived at in frequent meetings and conferences. The apex of the systems was to be the Bank for International Settlements in Basel, Switzerland, a private bank owned and controlled by the world's central banks which were themselves private corporations. Each central bank...sought to dominate its government by its ability to control Treasury loans, to manipulate foreign exchanges, to influence the level of economic activity in the country, and to influence cooperative politicians by subsequent economic rewards in the business world."

The promotion of miscegenation and the homosexual agenda and other moral corrosives, along with widespread poisoning by flouride and phyto-estrogens is a calculated assault committed by the master racists.

Consider the quality of the people who lived in the USA only three generations ago.

I remember my grandfather grousing about the world going to hell. I was lead to believe that was a complaint typically made by old men. Since then I have seen the foundation of civilisation reduced to a rot far worse than my grandfather could imagine. Obviously there was a time when civilisation was improving, not desolving.

This was not a natural progression, it has been a calculated plan. Some say an ancient plan, other say the conspiracy was hatch about 100 years ago.
